The real story is a little different, Letterman said: “I went upstairs to greet Meryl Streep and say welcome to the show,” Letterman said. “He mimes knocking and cries in a high, ladylike voice ‘Come in!’ And she was not in there, and I looked around and I found [Harmony] going through her purse. True story. And so I said ‘That’s it. Put her things back in her bag and get out of here.'”

Oof. Korine probably wasn’t in his right mind at the time: “He said he was a little out of it,” Franco said his friend told him.

“Harmony is a very sane guy now. A great artist and great person to work with. But I think he had a period where he was going a little off the rails, so maybe he was on something that night.”

Kinda sounds like it! And Korine is an admitted past user of crack and heroin.

Letterman said he’s willing to let bygones be bygones at this point, and he’d be “more than happy” to have him back.
